How to fulton extract things like guns and cargo that has "cover" over it?
I often come across bases and outposts with stuff like Machine guns, that is covered by a roof, cloth, or anything that makes it's extraction success rate 0%. Is there any way to "move" or do anything to extract those items? They are worth taking.

Yes you need an experimental form of the fulton that warps stuff trough wormholes... same with how to extract the skulls elite squad that hunts you at times, to be able to get late game high tect stuff. Its the last or one of the last uppgrades to the fulton system. It has a 100% sucessrate and isnt affected by weather.

Rule for this game... if you cant do it now, dont worry, the game is built to return to these places with higher tec and better gear. So what might not be possible now will Mid/Late/End game.

You need the +Wormhole upgrade. Last fulton upgrade you can unlock.

Ah, i'm not all that far in the game (only 2 missions into Africa).

It doesn't really make sense with the wormholes, but this IS metal gear solid we are talking about.

Yes you will get stuff like that later on. I dont wanna spoil anything but when you meet some of the stuff in this game you will be ok with it I think. It really goes from super serious earthbound stuff to scifi ridiccioulus in a moment and back again. I havent unlocked it yet and im more than half way trough so you wont get to that tec in a long while. Secondly you need to uppgrade the fulton a bit to be able to extract emplacement, veichles and the big boxes with resources with no cover at all aswell... but that can be done with the ballon ones. Its the fultons second or third uppgrade. Dont worry youll get there in time... I would go for the small boxes in houses and stuff early game they do come aplenty and of course soldiers.

You can Fulton the Skulls without the Wormhole upgrade.

You can't.
I just tried in mission 16 - no dice.

I don't have the wormhole upgrade and I can Fulton them. Even got the parasite suit abilities.

Are the skulls usable in any way?

Then you have some other fulton upgrade that was not available to me.

Yes. You get a suit later on that lets you use their abilities, and to research and use their abilities you need parasites, which you get from extracting them.

No idea. How far are you into the story? It's possible you can only extract them after a certain point.

Just finished main mission #17.

Chances are then you can only extract them after a certain point in the story.

That's something I believe.

Will try to fulton them when they appear again so we can pinpoint which mission or something enables it.
